Naturalistic dishes celebrate the best of Bolivian produce

Chief reason to visit: With Kamilla Seidler, Latin America's Best Female Chef in 2016, as advisor, new Bolivian head chefs Mauricio López and Marsia Taha produce naturalistic dishes in celebration of local ingredients. All food and beverages are 100% Bolivian.

A brief history: Noma co-founder Claus Meyer and his Melting Pot Foundation opened Gustu in 2013 with the intention of starting a new Bolivian gastronomic movement. Now the restaurant has become an independent company with a school inside its premises, many of its students being the chefs, bartenders, sommeliers and wait staff.

A few words on the chefs: Seidler set the foundation of Gustu with her powerful culinary talent – now the young and talented López and Taha are following in her mission to turn Gustu into a reference for Bolivian gastronomy.
